This sounds as the battery saver version of spot-pass (they don't talk about inter-vita wireless connections), which does make sense considering that the vita is aiming for power and will have a short battery life (fair assumption)... but it also takes away the automation of it. 1) you have to drop gifts or have people drop some 2) (as far as I understood) you won't download special content, by say... standing next to the sony booth at E3. I fear that this will be very under used as a feature... because it requires action from the user. the cross-chat though sounds like a great idea (well implementation as it's inspired by xbl), especially for a portable. |
Vita battery life in an interview was stated to be comparible to PSP's. PSP's is rated at 4-6 hours while gaming. Better than the 3DS' at 3-5 which is being found to be on the lower end of that rating most of the time: http://www.geekosystem.com/3ds-battery-life-bad/
